The 2023 Betfred Challenge Cup Final will be the 121st staging of the annual English rugby league cup competition. It will be held at Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday 12 August 2023. The match will be contested between Hull Kingston Rovers and Leigh Centurions.

Wembley Stadium is the largest stadium in the United Kingdom, with a capacity of 90,000. It is the traditional home of the Challenge Cup Final, and has hosted the match every year since 1929. The stadium is also the home of the England national rugby league team, and has hosted the Rugby League World Cup final on three occasions (1968, 1995, and 2013).

The 2023 Challenge Cup Final will be the first time that the women’s competition has been played at Wembley Stadium. The Betfred Women’s Challenge Cup Final will be held on the day before the men’s final, on Friday 11 August.

The Challenge Cup is the oldest rugby league competition in the world. It was first played in 1897, and is open to all clubs in the Rugby Football League. The current holders of the cup are St Helens, who defeated Catalans Dragons in the 2022 final.

The rules of the Challenge Cup are relatively simple. The competition is a knockout tournament, with each round played on a single match basis. In the event of a draw, extra time is played, followed by a penalty shootout if necessary. The final is the only match in the competition that is played over two halves of 40 minutes each.

The Challenge Cup is one of the most prestigious trophies in rugby league. It is a major prize for clubs of all sizes, and provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play at Wembley Stadium. The 2023 final is sure to be a thrilling encounter, and is a must-see for any rugby league fan.
